Retrouvius update

I was completely smitten with the work of interior design and architectural salvage firm Retrouvius when I blogged this London team back in ’09. It’s about damn time I blog some of their latest work. Their aesthetic and love of reclamation really tugs at my heartstrings. I want them to father my design children. And I want founders Adam Hills and Maria Speake stashed away in my back pocket so I can make use of their creativity and ability to find the coolest sh*t whenever I please. Realistically though, how about we all just enjoy some of their latest brilliance. Oh – and they have a book that just came out. (P.S. Can someone please tell me the name of those square uneven tiles in the first several kitchens? I’ve loved those for ages and would love to get my hands on some one day).

Looked up the link to Emery & Cie and saw what I thought: those tiles are reproduced old fashioned Dutch tiles. They are called 'Witjes', I think that could be translated to 'small white-ones' or something.Gorgeous interiors!!!!!

Lovely blog post. I'd just like to clarify that all the designs shown are by Retrouvius contrary to some of the comments above. The work can be seen in greater details here – http://www.retrouvius.com/design-projects
